Stella Tsani, and Phoebe Koundouri
Abstract This chapter (This work has received funding from the European Union’s
Horizon 2020 research and innovation program under grant agreement N
675,680)
presents in brief the work completed within the scope of the BlueBRIDGE project
with the aim to support the sustainable management of aquaculture production. The
work completed is the result of an interdisciplinary team of IT experts, economists,
biologists, social scientists, and marine professionals that have joined forces with the
aim to develop IT advanced tools and integrated models of production. A very
important part of work within the scope of BlueBRIDGE concerned Cloud Computing Infrastructure, Virtual Research Environments (VRES), and the development
of integrated production models with focus on aquaculture. These can support wellinformed site management and sector-related decision-making.
